Spain Luxury Holiday Guide

Why Visit Spain

Rest and relaxation are taken as seriously as fiestas and flamenco in Spain, which is a fine way to go about life, we think, particularly on holiday. The country’s patchwork history means luxury villas in Spain are almost always a skip, hop and a jump from medieval ruins, and tiny traditional towns.

Spain has some of the world’s finest galleries and museums, but you can intersperse the high culture with plenty of sitting back and soaking up the atmosphere.

It’s a country high on colour and zest for life. You’ll see it running through the cuisine, the art and the festivals, but the Spaniards know a good siesta is what sees you through the dancing until dawn.

Whether you’re soaking up the sights in Barcelona and Madrid, hiking in the wild heart of the country, exploring the Moorish towns of the south, sunning yourself on a beach in the Balearics or simply relaxing by the pool in your luxury villa, you can be sure you’ll find a lovely bar or tapas restaurant around the corner when you feel in need of a restorative break.

Luxury villa holidays in Spain give you the chance to explore beautiful parts of the country but with a super-comfortable base to return to for the evening, whether that’s for a sophisticated dinner and a dip in the pool or a quick siesta before your own private fiesta with friends.

The Best Time to Visit

In the south of Spain, the weather stays pleasant even in the low-season months, with blue skies but cooler evenings. In the summer the temperature rises making dining al fresco in the evening a joy.

What We Love About Spain

We love the pleasant climate in the holiday season, particularly in the south and the Balearics, where the mild evenings are made for sitting outside until midnight enjoying wine under the stars. It’s also a great destination for golfers, with some of our personal favourite golf courses located near Marbella.

The Best Places to Eat and Drink in Spain

Spain is best known for its tapas, small ‘tasting’ plates to be shared. Indeed, there’s so much to taste here, small plates are one of the easiest ways to ensure you sample the best of everything, from wonderfully salty cured hams to fresh seafood to artisan cheeses. The Mediterranean cuisine is full of flavour but not too heavy on the stomach – one has to have the energy to dance after dinner, after all!

In drinking terms, Spain is renowned for its robust reds, sherries and Cava. Wine fans should head to Rioja to visit the vineyards or to Andalusia for sherry tours. At our catered luxury Spanish villas, you can be served a selection of this fine wine, while you soak up the sun by your private pool.

Spain has for years been home to some of the best restaurants in the world. When staying in a self-catered luxury villa it is particularly worth a special stop-over at El Celler de Can Roca in Girona, where your group of friends and family sit around a walled garden behind glass enjoying the modern Spanish dishes, paired with a selection of sherry, and also Mugaritz up in San Sebastian, worth a trip just to try the famous starter of potatoes, dressed up to look like very convincing stones – one is almost too scared to bite into them!
